3608 Holland Avenue, Bronx, NY 10467

The 8-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 3608 Holland Avenue in Williamsbridge, owned by Uthira Kanagaraja, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years. Most recently, in January 2025, there was a heat and hot water complaint affecting the entire building, though this was reportedly corrected.

The building has faced particular challenges with water-related issues, as evidenced by multiple complaints in November 2024 involving plumbing problems (sink/basin), mold, and ceiling damage, with some inspections being unable to be completed. Significant violations were documented in April 2022 in apartment 7, including mold concerns, various paint/plaster issues, and problems with the buzzer/intercom system, though some of these were subsequently addressed. Historical records show a concerning pattern of maintenance issues, including a 2021 violation related to exposed wiring and corroded boiler components (with a $3,125 penalty) and some inspection inability to gain access.

The building appears to have managed its bedbug situation effectively, with no infestations reported in recent years (most recent reports from 2019-2022 showing zero infested units). The property has consistently passed rodent inspections in 2010, 2018, and 2022, suggesting effective pest management in that regard. While the building has addressed many of its violations and complaints, the repeat nature of certain issues, particularly regarding water systems and interior maintenance, indicates ongoing maintenance challenges.
